Born To Be Blue chords by Chet Baker

Guitar chords with lyrics

G               Bb9     Cm5-/7      G
Some folks were meant to live in clover
     G        Bb9          Am7   D7
But they are such a chosen few
      G            Cm       G              G6   Cm5-/7
And clover, being green, is something I've never seen
       G     Cm7         D9     D7
'Cause I was born to be blue
      G         Bb9   Cm5-/7   G
When there's a yellow moon above me
     G        Bb9                  Am7   D7
They say that moon beams I should view
     G                Cm         G       G6        Cm5-/7
But moon beams, being gold, are something I can't behold
       G     Am7     D7   G
'Cause I was born to be blue
Bridge:
Am7        D7       Am7                   D7
When I met you, the world was bright and sunny
Am7       D9       D7       G
When you left, the curtain fell
E7          A7               E7         A7
I want to laugh, but nothing strikes me funny
A7               Am7       D9 Am7 D7
Now my world's a faded pastel
         G         Bb9     Cm5-/7    G
Well, I guess I'm luckier   than some folks
G              Bb9             Am7   D7
I've known the thrill of loving you
    G              Cm       G       G6    Cm5-/7
And that alone is more than I was created for
       G     Am7     D7  G
'Cause I was born to be blue
